Use Smarten, see what changed, decide if you like it. Repeat.

Once you have gotten a feel for how Smarten works, you may decide to skip the check, but personally I would eyeball all automatic changes regardless of the situation.
Yes that was I meant by "safety net", sorry to be unprecise. What surprises me is that this tool is not customizable, and seems to be "Take it or leave it". It may apply a lot of different rules but we have to accept the whole package. This may be good for Unicode, but it seems bad for languages.

Nevertheless, I'll have a try and report later.
